Was ist GHK-Cu?
GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysin) ist ein Tripeptid, das natürlicherweise im menschlichen Plasma vorkommt. Die Konzentration sinkt mit dem Alter deutlich, was mit einer verringerten Regenerationsfähigkeit der Haut verbunden ist.
GHK-Cu hat ein duales Profil: Topische Formulierungen sind als kosmetische Inhaltsstoffe weit verbreitet, während injizierbares GHK-Cu in der Forschung für systemische regenerative Effekte untersucht wird. Shotlee hilft Ihnen, beide Anwendungsformen präzise zu dokumentieren.
Topical vs Injectable: Different Regulatory Status
Topical GHK-Cu is widely available as a cosmetic skincare ingredient and is legal in most markets. Injectable GHK-Cu is a research peptide not approved for human use in most jurisdictions. Consult a physician before using injectable forms.
Protokoll-Optionen

Forschungsprotokoll für systemische Effekte und Haarstimulation. Typischer Zyklus: 4–8 Wochen.
Forschungshighlights
Delivers bioavailable copper ions to sites of tissue damage, where copper acts as a cofactor for lysyl oxidase — the enzyme responsible for cross-linking collagen and elastin fibres into structural skin matrix.
Activates matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) systems that remodel damaged or disorganised extracellular matrix, while simultaneously upregulating TGF-b1 to stimulate new collagen I and collagen III synthesis.
Stimulates stem cell recruitment to wound sites via upregulation of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1), attracting progenitor cells that differentiate into tissue-specific repair cells.
Exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects by upregulating superoxide dismutase (SOD) and reducing TNF-a, protecting newly regenerating tissue from oxidative damage during repair.
Was Sie in Shotlee tracken können
Collagen Synthesis
+70%
In vitro studies show GHK-Cu increases collagen synthesis by up to 70% in fibroblast cultures, with concurrent increases in elastin and fibronectin.
Wound Healing
Faster
Multiple animal wound healing models show accelerated full-thickness wound closure, increased angiogenesis, and better organised collagen deposition with GHK-Cu.
Gene Regulation
4,000+
Research has identified over 4,000 human genes modulated by GHK-Cu, spanning wound healing, inflammation, collagen synthesis, and antioxidant defence pathways.
What to Track in Shotlee
Build a complete GHK-Cu application diary — doses, before/after photos, hair density, and healing metrics.
Application Log
Record every GHK-Cu application: date, product (topical or injectable), dose/concentration, and application site. Build a complete protocol history.
Skin Photos
Attach timestamped before/after skin photos to your log entries. Visual documentation of fine line reduction, texture, and wound healing is the primary outcome measure.
Hair Density
Log hair density estimates or trichoscopy results at regular intervals. For scalp application protocols, hair count or coverage ratings track follicle response.
Injection Site Notes
For injectable protocols: note injection site, any local reactions, and rotate sites systematically. Log site rotation to avoid repeated tissue exposure.
Before/After Metrics
Record objective skin measurements: skin elasticity scores if available, wrinkle depth, and wound dimensions at each checkpoint.
Lab Markers
For advanced monitoring: log serum copper, ceruloplasmin, and collagen biomarkers (PINP) if available. Track antioxidant markers (SOD activity) at baseline and follow-up.
Topical GHK-Cu for Skin vs Injectable for Systemic Effects
Topical GHK-Cu reaches the dermis through transdermal penetration when formulated with appropriate carriers (liposomes, nanoparticles, or low-molecular-weight vehicles). Clinical cosmetic studies show measurable improvements in skin density, elasticity, and fine line depth with consistent topical application over 8–12 weeks. This route is the most accessible and lowest regulatory barrier entry point for GHK-Cu use.
Injectable GHK-Cu bypasses the skin barrier entirely and achieves systemic distribution. Research protocols exploring hair follicle stimulation and systemic anti-ageing effects typically use 1–2 mg subcutaneously daily or every other day. Some researchers combine topical (face/scalp) with injectable (systemic) simultaneously — Shotlee lets you log both application types separately to track which is driving which outcomes.
Log Both Routes in Shotlee
If using GHK-Cu both topically and by injection, log each application separately in Shotlee with route, product, and site. Separate logs let you attribute skin vs systemic changes accurately.
Protokoll-FAQ
Topisch zur Hautverjüngung und Haarpflege. Injizierbar in der Forschung für systemische Regeneration und Anti-Aging.
Bei topischer Anwendung zeigen Studien oft nach 8–12 Wochen messbare Verbesserungen der Hautdichte.
Präklinische Daten deuten darauf hin, dass es die Haarfollikel-Proliferation stimuliert und die Wachstumsphase verlängert.
